Summertime BBQ
 

Its amazing how funk nasty grills get. Just cleaned mine and it was absolutely nasty. It was fun to clean it though. Something I could do by myself while having some brewskies, social distancing, and listening to my favorite songs.

Clean grill is like a new grill. That 1st steak gets the most amazing grill marks.

You can talk about anything grilling/BBQing here. But I always like to throw out at least 1 question.

Not including steak, what is your favorite thing to grill? I love grilled corn on the cob.

Whew..aight saw this thread before and wanted to bookmark now that I have more time


You want just solid meal? Burgers are always a staple...the most important tip is this, meat. Go ground round 85/15 for best flavor. You need to get the grill going first with good balance burning charcoal...i use a Weber chimney to light and dump hot burning fuel in the grill.....oh if you doing gas piss off...charcoal rules.

I love cheeseburgers on the Charcoal grill. Fuckin ‘Merica

Got to ask , Gas or Charcoal? I like Charcoal but the gas is easier for the Mrs to do when I'm not here . Been reading up on the new wood pellet grills and would love to hear from anyone who has one!

I live in a condo complex. Not even allowed to have charcoal. But I agree, gas is just easier in general, so that's what I'll probably always have regardless.

Damn, no grills? That's gotta be unconstitutional lol. Good for your wife. Easier for her to convince you to go over there.

I usually try to grill/roast something on Sundays. Got football on etc

This Sunday grilled some tandoori chicken thighs I had marinated over night. Lots of spices and herbs, can get a bit expensive but its worth it as it tastes like good indian restaurant quality.

I was worried the marinade coating might burn before the chicken was done so I tried to keep the coals in check by keeping the cover on and not get a lot of flames ..even though I wanted some of that beautiful charcoal char on there. I went all tender foot on the grill.

What I learned .... do not worry about a tandoori style marinade burning .. its not sugar based. Next time I am going to go hot and hard with the flames and get a good grill looking char on both sides for about 3 mins each side ... then put the lid on, kill the coals a good bit and let the smoke flavor seep in.

Charcoal all day both my smoker and my grill.

For now, I am charcoal. Gas is nice for quick dinner stuff after work and racing against a setting sun etc. but you cant beat charcoal.

Im doing both - gas and charcoal - once I buy my single family home in a year or two.

The Eggs sound awesome but im hesitant to drop $800 for a charcoal grill.
